Global Jet Capital sees five more years of bizjet growth

Global Jet Capital published its sixth Business Jet Market Forecast, calling for continued growth in business aviation through the next five years. The company points to aircraft order backlogs, economic resilience and continued wealth creation as supports for the market.

The key number is a projected 2.8% average annual increase in transaction count. The report also says business jet flight activity rose 3.4% year over year in the first half of 2026, after gains that began in late 2024.

That matters because the market has been waiting to see whether the pandemic-era private flying boom would cool into something weaker. Global Jet Capital’s view is that demand is not just hanging on, but broadening into a steadier cycle of flying, financing and aircraft trading.
